I am very disappointed with my experience with O2. I became a victim of fraud and reported the issue immediately as soon as I noticed it. I provided all the necessary details and expected O2 to take the matter seriously and investigate properly. Unfortunately, O2 did not handle my case well. They failed to provide proper support, did not take effective action, and did not show responsibility in dealing with a serious fraud situation. As a customer, I trusted O2 to protect and support me, especially in such a serious issue. Instead, I felt ignored and let down. The response from their side was unhelpful and unsatisfactory. This experience has caused me financial stress and frustration. I believe O2 should improve how they handle fraud cases and treat customer complaints more seriously. I am still expecting a fair resolution and proper investigation into my case.

My wife and I spent over 10 hours trying to resolve an issue caused internally at O2 by a "glitch". Customer is based in India and each operator had a different idea on solving the issue. Each time the problem was made worse. Ultimately they blocked the esimm so we had a non functioning phone. We switched to EE. The change was made in minutes. The customer service at EE was very much better.

Been a loyal client for many years. Switched couple of weeks ago to EE because price kept going up. Had the misfortune to have to deal with 02 andj their so called customer service and I am relieved to see most people find it is quite dreadful. I wondered if it was just me! Totally clueless and can only read from a script. Almost farcically bad.

Signal strength is generally OK, but my SIM only deal is going up by £2.50, to £12, and it is already £4.50 more than Lebara for the equivalent deal. Disappointing that they won't offer a deal for a loyal customer. Asked politely and was offered £16 deal!!

o2 lost my device 8 months ago and still charge me every month and I have no phone. I have reported this to them, have proof that they lost the item and have spoken to a manager in the Arndale, Manchester branch who has been unable to escalate it to anyone who can help. To be charged £65 per month for an iPhone I do not have is one thing...but to not be able to get anyone at the company to deal with a customer is utterly disgusting, if not borderline scam like behaviour. As someone who has followed every possible procedure to try and get a resolution to this, I am forced to write shocking reviews to attempt to get a human to actually respond and resolve this joke of a situation.

Negative star if possible. Been years with o2 and just couple of weeks network goes really rubbish. Then spoke with Mandy (customer service) rubbish attitude as well. I you fed up on what you doing please leave. Absolutely disgusting.

After my sim card was deactivated on 17th of March by Mr. Rondik Roldan from (O2 customer service), without warning and with a disgusting attitude on the phone, I had to immediately go to the nearest O2 brand and explain the whole situation to the service advisor Bonney (Wood Green). He was extremely kind to help me and replace a new sim card in my phone. I was under a lot of stress because I had no contact with anyone and neither my relatives had access to me. Thank you Bonney for the quick response and professional attitude. Anyway O2 still needs to improve its coverage and performance.

Minus stars if possible. No roaming for 3 months in U.S. yet they took funds for the service and charged extra for calls to O2 to try to resolve. Pretty much teh same as thieving. Calls to "customer service" are a joke - usually 1hr and speaking to offshore robots who have no knowledge or desire to do anything other than get you off the phone. Apalling. After nearly 25 years, moving to Lebara asap.

Just trying to pay an overdue bill I am told is owing, I paid the amount they wrote and asked for not an easy task, only to be told my sons phone won’t be put back on as there is still an outstanding amount never ever been informed of this just the one I eventually paid dont use this company all the customer service staff are capable of doing is reading a set out script they are totally incapable of using common sense and won’t even take your money unless you are spot on with the security. This phone and another one set up on Virgin Media many years ago taken over by o2 the information they have seems to be totally different from anything I could have used and because of that they won’t accept my payment nearly a week hours on the phone going absolutely nowhere. I got rid of Virgin broadband and tv for the same reason awful awful customer service. Don’t use o2 or Virgin the could cause you to kill yourself.

We both myself & my husband have been 02 customers for years. We have had an excellent customer service experience over the years even calling in-shop to sort- out minor technicalities & billing issues, with no major issues & resolved in minutes! Fast-forward to today (2026) & 02 have merged with Virgin! Virgin are known for their terrible customer service, billing & order issues. Weve never used Virgin & deliberately choose NOT TO!! My husband is 78 and spent literally just over an hour a half to some dude who was trying to get him to sign up to Virgin mobile!! My husband initially only telephoned to find out why his bill for this month was not its usual price, turns out premium rate numbers to an insurance company! That sorted.... Im upstairs and my husband comes up and throws his phone at me, I dont understand what he's saying!! Let me tell you, this rep was trying to get him signed up to a virgin price plan!! He said he had to ask certain questions to identify his ID ok I get that.. I sorted this out and my husband dissapeared with his phone... Half an hour later I heard him shouting down stairs 'I don't know what your saying or asking, I can't find it!! I rushed down my husband had all of his banking paraphenalia all over the floor. I took charge of the call turns out, he was inadverdantly trying to sign my husband up to Virgin mobile/media, he was asking his banking details, how much he earns I immediately recognised what he was trying to do.. I asked my husband what he said he told me the endless questions, banking details & salary etc I asked my husband, did he say he was signing you up for'A particular service.' He said no, he never said just kept on at him for over an hour and a half! My husband was distraught, he was in such a state. I told this inconsiderate idiot with his insincere patter, 'No your not signing him for anything!' I'm concluding this call you have kept him on too long a time already and Im not happy with what Im hearing.. I told him you already have richards details on file & account you dont need anything further except to give him the account details he requested!! He told my husband the charges where because he was out of contract! Then later told him different... These Indian/Asian call centres are the worst, diabolical!! Why do they keep you on soooo long a time and all the while you are getting nowhere with them!. Plus heckept calling me Maamm! Im not bloody royalty! Nor am I Miss but Mrs!! He kept saying over & over again 'I understand.' Well, no you don't actually!! I asked him why my husband cannot acess his on-line mobile account, the usual merging excuses (theres plenty of 02 customers like us with the same issue & they 02 are not sorting the issue out) He told me he couldn't do anything with the App nor account?? Get my husbands App working! and that it was up to a different department to deal with!! In other words a lazy fellow just looking to get commission, a quick buck by signing my husband up to Virgin!! So Im now considering leaving 02 Virgin as this is the pitts of customer service. I know EE has UK dedicated call centres so Im going with them, Im out of contract so they cant try & charge me for leaving besides they can whistle down the wind anhow. This experience was tantamount to elder abuse & bullying and Im absilutely fuming! How dare he treat my husband like this, he is even today extremely upset & disturbed by the whole experience! Good job he wasn't local I would be around ther like a shot!! 02 are finished! Im not continuing with 02 now they have merged with Virgin the worst known company & customer services going!! My advice, go elsewhere! BULLYING & ELDER ABUSE!

I bought a new phone from 02 in December. I have been a client with them for over 25years. They dispatched the phone to the wrong address. It has now been over a month and I have no phone as they will not re dispatch it and have not been refunded. I have spent hours on the phone to customer service trying to get my money back and still nothing. It is a total sham. This is an 02 error that I am paying for and they do not care at all. I do not know how to get my money back… so much unnecessary stress and time wasting when all I did was try to buy a phone:(

Terrible customer support. This is a company that treats you worse the longer you are with them. I am looking for another network now after 10 years with O2.
